Burning Poem by Cody Jaey
1 / 1
Burning
Rating: ★5.0
The sight of you
Causes great wells of fire
To rage within me
Burning and disfiguring
Til I no longer recognize
My own self
Every idea or desire
Is ash at the hands
Of my longing
I want to cut open my chest
Laying this scorched heart at your feet
To show you
All the things I can't describe
Surely, that would hurt less.
